![Garage Door Weather Stripping [Stop water from running into Garage]](/img/n.gif)
This is so timely. First time in 30 years I'm getting rain "hard blowing rain" coming under a fairy new clean garage door gasket.
I fitted one of these a few years ago for a client - it's still going strong!!
I screwed some DPC to the bottom of my door. Flexible, cheap, no ridge on the floor. Lasted years.
For a roller door there is weather stripping on the bottom of the door and an adjustment screw on the garage door opener that you can adjust to remove most gaps.
Jeffrey looks well chuffed 😂
Very timely! I've been putting up with some old lagging wedged against the back edge of the door to stop the rain blowing under the door (then leaving the garage by the side door after erecting the makeshift barrier). This would be a much better job and it's only motorbikes being pushed in and out so it wouldn't get too squished. Cheers Roger!
These are good. Did one in my old garage and it worked a treat.
The legend is that... Jeff can build a brick wall with both hands in his pocket 🤣
Absolutely brilliant them Rodger. I'm very impressed.👍👍
Nice job.👍 Did this myself and keeps majority of debris out.
My tip is wear gloves and old clothes as that sealant doesnt come off, bloody good stuff tbough
Does Jeff ever take his hands out of his pockets?
Poor guy has had to buy a weather strip. No money left for a belt
Sensible chap. I love hard work I could watch it all day
doesn’t need to - Rog is doing all the work, Jeff is supervising
No, otherwise he might have to do some work... 😂
Billiards
At least Roger gets on with the job. Tells us what he is doing while he is actually doing it👍👍
All Robin does is Yak! Yak! Yak! with very little content. Nice one Roger👍👍
Cheers, just ordered some
I just installed the exact same seal. 😊
Like that . We need one of those . Nice quick fix 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
What a good idea .
The grey pipe lagging works fine fixed on the bottom of my garage door.
I've just got a strip of roof felt attached to the back of the garage door. Been there years and fills the gap under the door.
nice little job there Rodger
👍👍👍Thank you.
Might get one
Love the idea, but my house builder forgot to put the cement in the garage floor concrete, so I don't think it would stick to dust
Jeff has 2 garage doors?! 😲 Must be in Surrey!
I had some old roof bars that I used for this. Work a treat.
good idea
look like a decent bit of kit.
Nuffin loik 'aving Bricktop doing yer garage threshold, moy son. Loik bringing the rodents' nemesis in on the job. Brilliant!
Interesting. Fastens to floor vice bottom of door.
Geoff should have electric roller garage doors, poor man😁
These strips work ok when the door is shut. The problems with leaves & dust start when you open it & a 7'x7' foot gap appears.
If you use your garage as a workshop & you want it kept clean:- fit a side door (where possible) & buy a leaf blower to periodically clean it out + fit a rubber strip to the door, rather than the floor, then you don't drive over it.
It doesn't work for us who have a garage with a floor that slopes the wrong way. In that situation, a strip on the floor is easier and cheaper than pouring a new floor.
Shop vac is much better
Screw/ glue a thin aluminium to the bottom,front edge of the door as close as you can to the floor level. Easy, cheap.
very good work roger !
Keep mice out, LOL, you have ZERO chance of that happening 😁😁😁
Lucky guy! At least he's not got one like mine. For some reason the gap under our single garage door is from 10mm one end to 50mm the other as the garage floor falls to one side...Hmmm, yes I'm familiar with the smell of mice...
Maybe fix a piece of flat rubber to the back of the door and cut it at an angle to close the gaps. Adhesive and nut and bolt fixing with large washers should do the trick.
Shocking price for what it is!

U want that on the underside of the door ,not on the floor . Its just a trip hazard and a pain to sweep
Odd. In the US it's common to have the seal on the door. Much better solution imo
I recently fitted new garage doors and went to fit behind rather than fit within. Moving the doors back exposed some of the rough finished concrete floor. Now in extreme rain I get some water under the door. Would this rubber strip bond to a rough finished concrete?
Thanks Roger
My garage is rough fitted concrete and the adhesive worked fine, just try to clean the floor as best you can beforehand and make sure you use plenty of sealant to ensure there aren't any gaps left between the seal and the concrete. Alternative you can try to sand the concrete down to make it smooth like they did in the video, but I think you need the right tools for that.
@@ChrisThomson Thank you Chris, much appreciated
Hopefully he won't find his garage full of mould next spring
Agree, if you remove that ventilation gap in wet & windy UK you may then need an Incandescent Dehumidifier - Though that will then also stop his tools going rusty….👍
Is there anything like this for a roller door ?
A roller door has a weather strip on the bottom of the door. Sometimes these need to be replaced. But first check the garage door opener. There should be a screw that adjusts where it stops. You should be able to use that and remove any gap you have.
0:18 Stating the obvious - why not put the normal and typical seal on the bottom of the door? No offense, but this seems more like an advertisement for a product than the best solution for the problem.
Smile Jeff…..that glue won’t hold for long
Mines been stuck down for 6 years.

Was this a sponsored vid by any chance?
no
The concrete floor should be unimpeded, strip should be attached to door(?)!
He can do what he wants to his garage 🙄
Why the miserable look Jeff?😳
You all need to start getting AC in your homes to get ready for climate change.
That will make it worse
It’s the cold and the damp we have to worry about here and will do for many decades to come! Plenty of other things to stress about though as this country goes to the dogs.
